The Jets have been in contact with the agent for free agent guard Evan Mathis .

New York has five players in the running for their right guard spot at the start of training camp, but they've spoken to Drew Rosenhaus about the possibility of signing Mathis, per ESPN.

Reportedly, no signing is imminent.

Obviously Evan's a good player, but as this thing plays out a bit, we'll get a better feel for that," Jets GM Mike Maccagnan said. "The thing is, too, is that Evan might have a value he's looking for right now that may not be in the value that some of the teams want to potentially spend on him. But we'll see how that develops.
